Description pharmaceutical form:

Tablets from white color with a yellowish tinge to yellow with an orange tint, ploskotsylindriceskie, with facet, scored on one side and the words "ON" on the other. Allowed subtle splashes of more intense color.

Lyophilisate for preparation of solution for injections and local application: porous mass of white color with a yellowish tinge to yellow. The drug is hygroscopic and photosensitive.

Suppositories: torpedo-shaped, light yellow color with a weak specific smell of cocoa butter.

Pharmacokinetics:

Pills: after intake of rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, bioavailability of approximately 50%. Cmax in plasma achieved through 3 h after ingestion. The pharmacokinetics of the tablets is linear (concentration in plasma is proportional to the dose). Polyoxidonium is a hydrophilic compound. The apparent volume of distribution is approximately 0.5 l/kg, which suggests that the drug is distributed mainly in the intercellular fluid. The period of poluabsorbtion 35 min, T1/2 is 18 hours.

Lyophilisate for preparation of solution for injections and local application: it has high bioavailability (89%) the time to reach Cmax in blood after the/m introduction — 40 minutes rapidly distributed to all organs and tissues. The period of poluraspredelenia in the body with/in the introduction — 25 min, T1/2 (slow phase) and 25.4 h, with the/m introduction — 36,2 h

Suppositories: for rectal administration, has high bioavailability (at least 70%), reaching a Cmax in the blood at 1 h after injection. Poluraspredelenia period of about 0.5 h, the period of preliminaly — 36,2 h

The body is hydrolyzed to oligomers, which are excreted mainly by the kidneys. The cumulative effect is absent.

Description pharmacological action:

Polyoxidonium has immunomodulatory effects, increases the body's resistance against local and generalized infections. The basis of the mechanism of immunomodulating action of Polyoxidonium is a direct effect on phagocytic cells and natural killer cells, also stimulate the antibody productions.

Tablets (optional): Polyoxidonium activates the phagocytes in the peripheral blood and tissue macrophages, which promotes more rapid elimination of the pathogen from the body in the presence of a focus of infection. In addition, Polyoxidonium activates lymphoid cells in regional lymph nodes, namely b-cells that produce secretory IgA.

With sublingual application activates the lymphoid cells located in the nasal cavity, evstafievich tubes, the oropharynx, bronchi. In addition, activates the bactericidal properties of saliva.

Oral application also activates lymphoid cells in the lymph nodes of the intestine. The consequence of this is to increase resistance of respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract and upper respiratory tract to infectious agents.

Lyophilisate for preparation of solution for injections and local application and suppositories (optional): restores immune responses in secondary immunodeficiency, various infections, trauma, burns, autoimmune diseases, malignant neoplasms, complications after surgical operations, the use of chemotherapeutic agents, cytostatics, steroid hormones.

Along with immunomodulatory effects has a pronounced detoxification and antioxidant activity, has the ability to rid the body of toxins, salts of heavy metals, inhibit lipid peroxidation. These properties are determined by the structure and macromolecular nature of Polyoxidonium.

Increases the resistance of cell membranes to cytotoxic action of drugs and chemicals, reducing their toxicity.

Inclusion of Polyoxidonium in complex therapy of cancer patients reduces intoxication on the background of chemo - and radiotherapy, in most cases allows the treatment without change of the scheme of standard therapy in connection with the development of infectious complications and side effects (myelosuppression, vomiting, diarrhea, cystitis, colitis, etc.).

The use of Polyoxidonium on the background of secondary immunodeficiency States allows you to increase the efficiency and reduce the duration of treatment, significantly reduce the use of antibiotics, bronchodilators, corticosteroids, to lengthen the period of remission.

The drug is well tolerated, has mitogenic, polyclonal activity, antigenic properties, has no allergenic, mutagenic, embryotoxic, teratogenic and carcinogenic actions.
